I couldn't disagree more darkknight.
I believe that he is singing about the routine life of a middle class citizen who is frustrated by the monotony of his surroundings. Regardless of his luxuries (Central air, heat, comforters, furniture, books, etc) they are still material possessions that offer no real value or worth. He feels angry, pent up, but cant speak his mind for reasons unknown reasons, perhaps due to societal pressures . this only causes him more emotional distress, causing him to emotionally spiral into more frustration. I believe that this person, the nameless "you," represents a part of us all, how we wish to break away from the boring, the routine, and the monotonous, yet most of us don't speak out because we are too scared or afraid of the repercussions.
